[jira] [Commented] (KNOX-181) gateway dsl shell adds too many unnecessary jars to its classpath

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-181?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13786454#comment-13786454 ] 

Kevin Minder commented on KNOX-181:
-----------------------------------

Are you suggesting that launcher.cfg be changed to enumerate only the required JARs.  If so what would identity as the practical benefit of doing that?  Seems to me that this just becomes a maintenance problem.  Keep in mind that ../ext;../ext/*.jar is there as a mechanism to allow for extension without requiring the customer to find and modify classpath entries.
